Definitions
- This invention refers to a collectiere according to the precharacterizing part of claim 1. It is preferably used though not solely outside as for example on the public highway, in gardens or for the decoration of public open air precincts and the like.
- the caniere or plant container herein described is of the type consisting of an outer box which serves as a protective container and as a decorative exterior to the nestiere itself which latter holds the plants, flowers or other forms of vegetation and which is the internal component separable from the outer box, there being, thus, two independent but associated parts.
- a typical utilization of the collectiere as described herein would be the floral ornamentation of public footpaths or sidewalks so providing a practical system for maintaining them while they are disposed along the throughfares or in the gardens and spaces open to the public.
- the individual internal components from a number of boxes may be collected by a suitable vehicle, taken to a central site and the plants maintained conveniently. They can then be returned to their respective boxes or external components, which latter will have remained in their permanent position.
- the object of the present invention is, therefore, to provide a compactiere according to the precharacterizing part of claim 1 which ensures an adequate supply of moisture to the soil in the internal container.
- the construction of the external container may be seen also in Figure 10, 11 and 12 on one vertical and one horizontal section taken through the planes XI-XI and XII-XII respectively.
- the plant container or caniere as described consists, as indicated above, of an internal container component shown as the body -1- in Figure 1, designed to be fitted within another container body -2- as shown in Figure 2.
- the former is made up of four metal plates -3- of rectangular shape and mutually alike and joined together by their vertical edges which are formed into elongated trapezoidal flanges -4-drilled for fitting bolts with their corresponding nuts and locking washers, 5, 6 and 7 respectively, thus a square shaped box, open at its top and bottom, with its height less than its width.
- the top edges of the plates -3- are formed to trapezoidal flanges -8- so that the assembled figure is that of a quadrangular frame.
- the lower edges of the plates are formed to entrant flanges -9- at a slight angle to the plane of the base as may be seen in the Figure 5.
- the plates -3- carry, near to the upper edges, 'U' members inverted for purposes of lifting and transporting the internal component.
- the plates -3- have attached thereto on the outer faces trapezoidal section members -11-, welded on their vertical edgescarrying rectangular plates -12- fixed by the edges -13- & spot welds -14- thereto as shown in Figure 3,5 and 6.
- This assembly provides thus heat insulating cavities of a flattened configuration against the respective lateral walls.
- L section members -19- are fixxed in parallel and at regular intervals across the lower faces of the chambers -42- Holes -20- are provided in the lower chambers -42- for the purpose of holding cording -21- which can take up water by capilliary action and transmit it to the mass of soil situated above the said chambers which form the base of the internal component -1-.
- a length of tube -22- is fitted to one of the sides of the component vertically having its lower extremity -23- angled and located in the lower part of one of the flattened chambers -42- penetrating therein through a hole slightly bigger than the tube and held in place by means of a plate -24-, the tube serving as a feed means for water into the interior of the collectiere.
- Another tube -25- is fitted on the side opposite that of -22- in the component -1- for the ventilation of the water chamber and this may be fitted with a floating rod the position of the head of which will indicate the level of the water.
- the component -2- the outer part of the collectiere as shown in the drawings 2, 7 and 8, 9 to 12, consists of a base -26- in the shape of a flat quadrangular box in plan view of low height compared to its width and having salient configurations -27- acting as support feet in the areas corresponding to the corners.
- the main body -2-, resting on this base comprises four plates -28-, as shown in the Figures 10, 11.and 12, These four plates are provided with a central strengthening member -29- in the form of a transverse rib on the inner surface, an inward protruding flange on the upper edge -30-, another inward protruding flange -31- at the base and a rim -32- which delimits the open area which rests on the lower box -26- as shown in the Figure 7.
- Assembly of the four pieces -28- is effected by means of two salient fitments in the form of metal angles -33- with one of their sides inserted within the material as can be seen in Figure 9. while the other extremity of each plate -28- forming a right angled rim -34- and fitted with another pair of angles -35- corresponding to the first pair, The assembly is then carried out using bolts -36- through holes in the said fitments with their corresponding locking nuts -37-.
- the component -2- comprises, in the form described above, the upper part consisting of the four plates -28-, resting on and fitting into the the box form base -26-, the latter providing a chamber containing a quantity of water in reserve for irre- gating the plants in the mass of soil contained in the component -1- which is located within the component -2-.
- the said chamber remains in communication with the surrounding air by means of holes in the lower part of of the plates -3-, thus providing aereation of the water in the chamber
- the lower chamber -26- has an overflow orifice -38- in the central part of its side walls, the height thereof determining the maximum normally required level of water such that when this is exceeded the excess will spill out to the exterior.
- Figure 13 illustrates the procedure for assembling and separating the two components 1 and 2.
- the internal component -1- may be moved, extracted from or placed in the component -2- by means of a lifting mechanism such as a hoist and cables -39- fitted with hooks -40- which engage with the 'U' hooks -10- attached to the component -1-.
- a lifting mechanism such as a hoist and cables -39- fitted with hooks -40- which engage with the 'U' hooks -10- attached to the component -1-.
- the outer surfaces of the sides -28- of component -2- may carry inscriptions or designs -41- corresponding for example to the Municipality, Public Authority or a mere artistic decoration.
